Simple answer is to give freedom to vaccinated people: travel, got to sports, go to cinema, go to pubs and resteraunt. No vaccination: as before, no pubs, resteraunt, cinema, air travel, sports events etc. Then it's your choice.

I will most likeley get it but will certainly (have to) wait. I'm in no rush to get it and by then, time will tell me if it's safe.

But not everybody on the forum actually lives in Switzerland so it may well apply to them.
Plus some people never drive here but do when they visit ‘home’ so they never convert their licences to Swiss ones.

Nevertheless the driver could spread the virus by going to the office or attending all manner of social gatherings,
pub crawls, rave parties ( if the drivers into rave parties ? )
So he or she might have started their car journey alone but they could very well be meeting others and spreading
the virus at their destination.

Can I have the Moderna or the Pfizer one please?

I think id probably refuse the AstraZeneca one. I want a vaccine which gives me the confidence to visit older members of my family. Living in the uk there's a good chance they'll get the AZ one. Decent chance it fails on me or my wife AND one of them were we both to have AZ vaccination.

I have the non-proveable suspicion that where I to accept the AZ Id be shunted down the queue for getting one of the better ones.

Quite right if such clubs and venues started amending their membership & admission rules to say - if your not
vaccinated and immunised against the virus, then your not welcome here. If there's any complaints they can
always say they are simply following Govt health & safety rules. Perhaps we will see people being issued
with 'I've been vaccinated against Covid19 cards or passports' to prove it. Just like ID cards such as the
UK's Proof of Age Card below.

Although in the end it's their choice, nobody is going to force people to get vaccinated but their lives
could be constrained if they don't.

I'll definitely get the vaccine as soon as it's offered even if there are some possible unknown side effects. I'd prefer to take that risk if it liberates me from the other paranoia that most people (certainly us older ones, anyway) have found in trying to maintain a socially distanced life over these several months.

Bring it on.

Possibly covid infection itself might be a less risky alternative? I am wondering if building immunity by fighting the actual covid infection would be a better alternative at the moment than the current vaccines - for someone who is not in the risk group of course. The vaccine might be safe but it has to be properly tested.

It is still not certain whether catching and recovering from Covid confers longterm immunity - or whether subsequent bouts are worse than the first.
The effects of „long Covid“ - longterm medical complications are also a factor.

I think what you will see is that governments will require nationals of third countries be vaccinated before coming to their country. For CH this will be done through Schengen.

Some may also require it for return travel for their own nationals (and everyone else) from hot spots.

If you stay at home and in your bubble, you will be OK you will not be required to vaccinate. But if you want to cross borders, go to the hospitals/cliniques, go to concerts etc you are going to need to vaccinate.

The good news is there appears to be very little reason not to vaccinate, no serious side effects (yet).

And as I am 3x at risk my peace of mind will increase immediately with every jab.

I would get the vaccine, I want to start travelling without worries again. I find it justified if only people that are vaccinated are allowed to travel etc. Maybe the airlines wont ban people that are not vaccinated, but the destination country would be justified to ban everyone that is a threat to their own citizens.

I will get the vaccine, but not as an early adopter. Let the risk groups go first.

The next challenge is going to be how to know who (and when; which) has been vaccinated in a format that will be recognised throughout the world.

Sounds like something ICAO or IATA needs to get working on. And the sooner the better.

There is for example an official yellow fever certificate. Something like that, or in your vaccination record, with the vaccine sticker and a Drs stamp on it I expect.

This stuff is already being worked on, at least in the UK. There were articles last week how people who have taken two negative tests in a week will have unrestricted freedom for a fixed period. Its not the policy, its just showing how its all going to slowly come together: there will be an indicator, be it vaccine proof, negative test proof or whatever that you are non infectious and do not have it and you will be able to lead your normal life. Without this you may still be subject to restrictions.

To me, it makes sense.

I don’t really understand the fuss!

I’ve been vaccinated /inoculated for polio, diphtheria, tetanus, yellow fever etc etc and never knew anyone who had any of these complaints.

Now I know dozens who suffered from Covid-19, one for 5½ months in hospital, one in the UK who died of it - and there’s a question about getting vaccinated?!?

I will be at the front of the queue (if there is such a thing in Switzerland) the day vaccines are available here...

Those vaccines were taken by our parents & possibly our grandparents so we know they are very safe.

They are already collecting signatures for “STOPP Impfplicht” - Stop compulsory vaccine.

Basically antivaxers - thus no link form me...

WE do, but did they when they first took them?

Given the choice of a world with Covid or one without it’s a no brainier...

They didn't so lot of people died back than. Not to mention it took decades to develop vaccines not months like now.
